what kind of camera are you using for the close ups? how do you do close ups, I have a canon powershot pro 1, can this do good close ups?

Its not necessarily the camera but the lenses. If your camera can accept add-on lenses, browse around online for some macro lenses which is what you will need for close ups.

EDIT:

from amazon
Incredible Up-close shots
Super Macro Mode: The PowerShot Pro1 features a standard macro function that allows you to shoot clearly at just 4" from your subject. It also incorporates a new Super Macro Mode that takes you in even closer. Position your subject as little as 1/2" from the tip of the lens and capture a full 8 megapixels of astonishingly close detail.
